Found 5 feet from basketball court about 4" in sandy clay dirt .At first I thought I had some kind of Gold coin,Had the color & the weight,11.9 Grams & a little bigger than a Quarter.After cleaning it some I realized it was not Gold,Just a Gut feeling,About all I know is it's from Mexico and it's a $100 Dollars or Peso's

As stated above, it is from Mexico and is aluminum and bronze. This particular design was minted from 1984 to at least 1992. The person depicted on it is Venustiano Carranza. Yours is not worth much, only about 10 cents. Still, a cool find! :thumbsup:
It is listed as KM #493.
